_______

You will learn all the screen-printing process from scratch and `print a small edition of your piece on paper or textile support. :)

Screen printing is a manual technique that can be used to transfer an opaque image to any surface trough a mesh, direct ink and pressure.

In this workshop, you will learn the whole screenprinting process, we will:

1. Pre-printing: Select the screen in base on our design and coat it with emulsion.

2. Transfer the design to our screen: Magical stencil process.

3. Select and mix the color.

4. Print! :)

If you are an illustrator, artist, designer... and you want to be able to produce your own high quality prints at home and self-publish in a budget, this is can be the perfect technique for you. After the workshop, there is a possibility of becoming a member of our studio and use our screen-printing facilities in Wedding if you are interested.

You can print on all the surfaces with screen printing, but we will focus on the most populars: textile & paper. You can make T-shirts, Tote bags, postcards, business cards, prints, etc. You have to bring your own surface (paper or textile). I suggest to start with paper, because is cheaper and a good way to practice. We provide inks and all the other necessary material.

Design specifications:

- 1 color / layer design (max size A3)

- 100% Black opaque design (stain or line illustrations, photographies in bitmap, logos,etc) ---> We'll add the color manually in the printing process!

Edition specifications:

- Paper: Max 20 prints (A3 size)

- Textile: Max 10 prints (A3 size)

What you need to bring to the workshop?

- Your design ready, please send it to me before the workshop to make sure is printable.

- The support where you want to print it (T-shirts, paper, tote bags, etc)

Get ready your design and let's print!

ABOUT ME (the teacher)

My name is Carla Cimino, I am a graphic designer and printmaker from Spain. I learnt screen printing in Barcelona while I was studying graphic design and I started to focus on printmaking projects.
